Not a full day, maybe not even an hour. But it does give a quick history and the staff is great. Helps give a good perspective on Mt Dora
I can't remember of the lady that gave us the tour but she knew her history of Mt. Dora. She used to be s school teacher, and I wished she would have been one of mine. She told us a lot of history that most folks don't know. Please go visit.
We visited the museum and were able to get some information to help with our genealogy. The ladies there were very helpful and we enjoyed talking with them.
Tiny museum, stuffed full of fascinating pictures and artefacts from school desks to orange squeezers, railroad timetables to fire hoses, jail house art to bibles. Personalised guided tour, where else would you get that?
The Mount Dora Historical Society Museum is a must see when you visit Mount Dora, a quaint little city 40 miles north of Orlando. It can be found at 450 Royellou Lane; Mount Dora, FL 32757 [Between 5th and 4th Avenue] Conveniently located in Downtown Mount Dora. You would be surprised at the history this little city has. There was... More
Although the Historical Museum was small and hard to find it was worth the stop. It was interesting to see how small at one time fire trucks were and how the town was formed and got its name.
If this is the Mt. Dora / Jail / Museum then I want to tell you it was very interesting. Susan (guide) was very informative and interesting to talk with. Shared a lot of great Mt. Dora History stories.
A lovely little snapshot of life in the town as it was in the last 150 years. It is good to see the historical artefacts being preserved. And we enjoyed talking to the curator who was most informative.
You received the sense that the people who put this together acred about their work.
We were told to visit the museum to learn more about town. There was nothing worth spending ten minutes for. Mostly copies hanging on the wall and the attendant was more interested in talking about her craft than answering history, which I doubt she knew any. Just let this one go.

Matthew FYI. I never said that I did not like the news. I was simply telling you that your choice of delivery would probably not be well received as it does not sound loving and was laced with sacarsm. You can say the SAME thing and deliver the SAME message using a more loving tone and have it well received. That is my only point. Try to step back from situations and access what is truly being said. I have found that to be extremely helpful in my interactions. Since I may be saying it all wrong I will use the words of a well known sage. Mary Poppins said it well. " Just a spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down in the most delightful way. "
Learning to speak to women and communicate your needs in a loving way is going to be key to a happy, successful marriage. Most people will tell you that a lack of communication or poor communication is the number one cause of marital breakdown. We are here to help each other. I was just trying to tell you that what you were saying, though it might be valid, may not be well received because of the tone of how you said. Simply that. Nothing more, nothing less. Try to see it as that and not read more into it. Just a sister in Christ offering some advice based on an observation because I care.
Since we had the 15 things thread and no guy answered the question on what they want, I thought that I would start another thread to get some answers. I know that all of the ladies on here would love to know the answer to this. Keep them coming fellas.
To dress better when we go out or to church, to wear skirts and dresses more often unless doing an activity where there are inappropriate, to always style her hair and wear make-up (although minimally if we are doing something more athletic than golf).

Yo dogs, get down with this bomb KMart commercial from, like, jurassic park in which Hailee Steinfeld (movies) plays a teenager just like you with hormones and probably a Family Plan Palm Pre and she says the word "blingitude" or something chilled because that's what's f-f-f-fresh.

Hi all, This is my first real post, but I've been lurking here since our last kitchen remodel in Dec '12. That time we did a full Monogram kitchen with an induction cooktop and an Advantium oven as the highlights. Unfortunately we lost that kitchen after only 6 months of enjoyment when our house was consumed by the Black Forest wildfire last summer. We broke ground on the rebuild last week, and my wife and I are knee deep in the kitchen planning. This go around we are leaning towards a full Thermador package. The preliminary plan is to do a 30" Freedom fresh column with an 18" frozen, a non-freedom 36" induction, and a Professional steam oven and regular oven. Naturally, we would be getting the "free" Sapphire dishwasher and hood. I've done a ton of research on this and other sites and while I totally get that we've bought into their "package marketing", I still feel this is a very good package for the price. It ticks the boxes that I want--separate compressors for the fridge and freezer, an oven with real knobs (vs a touch panel), and an induction burner big enough for our largest Le Cruset oval French oven. I will miss my beloved Advantium, but I'm really jazzed about the steam oven. My wife and I are both passionate cooks and we intend to put these units through their paces. Our last fridge was a 36" Jenn-Air so this will be our first experience with a built in fridge. My wife wants to have some separation between the fridge and freezer (she loves the picture with a wine rack between the units). My thought is to keep them together to make the kitchen more "future proof" in case one or more of the units goes south on us. I think it would be better to keep a 48" opening since that should always be an option from multiple vendors, and I would hate to have to trash nice custom cherry cabinets because the fridge died. Any thoughts from the community? Any other thoughts we should be considering at this point in the process? After two major remodels with our builder prior to this, we have a very good working relationship so we are in a good position there. In fact, we will be his entry in the Parade of Homes this year (my wife and I are house geeks and are really stoked about this opportunity). Our cabinet provider is a local custom shop that also sells (and matches custom work to) a full line of prebuilt cabinet lines they carry. Neither us nor our builder have worked with this vendor before, but initial meetings have been very positive. The kitchen is going to be big and open to the great room, breakfast nook and dining room. I will continue to post here as we finalize the designs and the choices. Thanks in advance for your feedback and support as we go though this process! We have been through an ordeal in the last year, but this new kitchen is one of the brightest of the silver linings so we are totally focused on it. |
Follow-Up Postings:
No advice, but best of luck with the rebuild! |
Sorry to hear of your loss. Normally, we don't recommend "package deals" here in GW~~but~~if I were to recommend one, it would be what you chose, with the exception of the steam oven, Now why am I going along with your package deal? First, we've seen a lotta positive posts about the Thermador Freedom columns (except when they first came out). Second, we see a lot of positive posts about the Thermador induction cooktops~~alto to be truthful, just about any induction cooktop tends to get positive reviews. Not that familiar with the Thermador ovens, so I'll just pass on that one. Dishwasher, How can you beat the price? I would not worry about how you ":arrange" the freedom columns, go for what you both like. They are not likely to take a "fatal dump" in the near forseable future, and even if they did~~just replace it, or worse case something is a slightly different size~~~~a good cabinet maker can solve that problem for ya! We have the built in Jenn-air 48" fridge, for over 7 years now, trouble free, love it!!~~~~but had I known about those columns back in 2006, they might be sitting in my kitchen rather than the 48" JA. Good luck on your build and your pending appliance decisions! Gary |

Chaplain's Corner + Overcoming the Need for Approval [3]
by Fr. George Morelli [4]
In clinical psychology there is a well-known irrational cognition that prompts dysfunctional emotions such as anxiety and depression and ensuing maladaptive behaviors. The impaired belief or cognition is that: "I must [emphasis mine] be loved or approved by practically every significant person in my life---and if I am not, it's awful [emphasis mine].i It can be noted that must, implies a personal rule or demand. Awful implies that the result is the 'end of the world' 'more than 100% bad. The dire need for approval, as in the case of other irrational beliefs, dis-affirmative emotions and faulty behaviors, lead to a cascading domino of untoward problems. Such need for approval undermines being able to overcome obstacles to attain desirable goals and very often leads individuals to set high standards that are so perfectionistic as to be practically unattainable all with accompanying increasing dysfunctional emotions mentioned above.

SALT LAKE CITY — Immigration reforms proposed by a bipartisan group of senators, which include a path to citizenship for some 11 million people in the country illegally, were well-received Tuesday by many Utahns who have been key figures in the immigration debate.
"Undocumented immigrants have long waited for this day and so far they like what they hear. Most immigrants want to work without the fear of being deported. Many will be able to do so," said Tony Yapias, longtime immigrant activist.
The legislation would create tens of thousands of new visas for international workers in low-skilled jobs and spend billions on new border control technology and the hiring of 3,500 additional federal agents.
Most such immigrants who arrived in the country before Dec. 31, 2011, could gain immediate "registered provisional" status after paying a $500 fine and back taxes, under the proposal. This option would not be open to people convicted of a felony or three misdemeanor offenses.
People with provisional status could then apply for permanent resident status in 10 years after paying additional fees, according to summaries of the plan. Three years later, they could apply for citizenship.
Meanwhile, farm workers would have a faster path to citizenship. They could seek a green card after five years, a move intended to stabilize the agriculture workforce.
However, American citizens would no longer be able to sponsor siblings for eventual U.S. citizenship, a move backers say would help stabilize the immigration system. Visas for highly skilled, well-educated workers would nearly double, which would help the nation's high-tech and biomedical industries.
Former Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff said he was optimistic about prospects of the Gang of Eight proposal after meeting with each of the senators involved in the negotiations.
"I think it's actually possible" that the reforms will become law, Shurtleff said. "It looks like it's a reality. It's very exciting."
But others were not as enthused, such as Utah Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, who released a statement Tuesday afternoon noting that the full details of the proposal had not yet been released.
"It is unfortunate that we have so little time to digest and evaluate such an expansive piece of legislation before we hold our initial committee hearing. As senators, it is our duty to read the bill and fully understand the impact it will have on our immigration system before casting votes."
The Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled hearings on the bill Friday and Monday.
Ron Mortensen, co-founder of the Utah Coalition on Illegal Immigration, said the proposal is flawed in that it grants legal status to people before the nation secures its borders.
"We've been here before. They were going to secure the border in 1986," referring to immigration reforms instituted during the Reagan administration.
"We're still waiting for them to fulfill that promise."
But others, such as David Morales, a "Dreamer" who is one plaintiff in the ongoing legal challenge to HB497, Utah's immigration enforcement law passed by the Legislature in 2011, said he's "pretty content" with the proposed federal reforms, particularly the focus on youth brought to the country illegally by their parents. They would be able to apply for a green card in five years and citizenship immediately thereafter.
"I'm happy with it. I know it's going to benefit a lot of people. We should focus on the positive, not the negative," he said.

Dental disease is preventable, yet dental care is the most common unmet health treatment need in children.
Dental care remains the greatest unmet health need among U.S. children. Untreated oral health problems can lead to pain, missed school days, decreased self-esteem and even death. Nine million U.S. children lack health insurance, and more than twice that number lack dental coverage. Even those with coverage often do not receive recommended oral health services. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, only 49 percent of Medicaid-enrolled children received dental services in 2011. The shortage of dental providers contributes to this problem. According to the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), about 45 million people live in areas with a shortage of dentists, and finding timely care may be difficult. State lawmakers continue to explore policy options to improve access to oral health services..

The fish was not so spicy, and not so cheap. But they offer a various kind of fish, and fresh! Nice to try when visit Makassar
The fish was not so spicy, and not so cheap. But they offer a various kind of fish, and fresh! Nice to try when visit Makassar
I was expecting something special about this place. But the food here is just decent. You can find seafood like this in any other place.
the hotel we stayed is beside this restaurant, they said this is pretty famous in makassar so we tried & it really is! The seafood is fresh, so it is tasty but cheap. Will come again when i came to makassar again
It looks like a big canteen. People eats with their hands. And the floor gets trashy with what they throw on the floor. I, a vegeterian, had 2 good vegetables dishes out of a larger choice. For the fish, it looked overgrilled but customers seem to like it. My friend had grilled chicken that smelled fish, of course they use... More
We ate here often while in Makassar. You get to choose your own seafood which they then BBQ. It's fun sitting at the long tables and meeting the locals who turn up in great numbers to eat here. The food is superb and the staff helpful with suggestions (even though most don't speak English).
I'm not a big fan of seafood... So, when they offer me for fish, I deny it, so I choose a roasted prawn (udang bakar) with rice... The prawn taste fresh and they serve it with 3 different kind of sauce... I love the peanut sauce, and tomato sauce... It gives a deep flavored, but I found the chili sauce... More
The restaurant location is near the losari beach, just in front of our hotel, Fave Hotel Daeng Tompo. The seafood is very delicious, simple BBQ with 3 kind of sambals (chilli sauce). According to a friend, Lae Lae is still consider cheap in Makassar, and definitely must try if you come to Makassar!
Although Lea Lea doesn't look like much from the outside - and is hardly palatial on the inside, the food it serves is fresh and delicious. Choose your own fish from the ice buckets and then watch them get de-scaled, cleaned and grilled outside on the 'BBQ'. The Oleh-Oleh (fish roe with peppers grilled in Pandam leaf) is also excellent.... More
Fish was fresh, but condiments needs to be improved. Also cashier has no line so practically no queue which can be a bummer. Probably would return
I am a business traveler to Makassar since 1990. I had been to this restaurant for few years but the cleanliness never changed. All fish are fresh but taste average. Because of that, I have never gone back to this Lae Lae restaurant except I am invited by our local friends. The atmosphere is not a place where you want... More

So, I see blossom set products being sold and they claim it increases yield and ripening time. Is this really true? Is it worth buying and how quickly does it get used up? Anyone have personal experience with this? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi wild forager - many past discussions on it if you want to review them but the general consensus is that it is a waste of time and money. Per the FAQ here on it: "Hormone sprays, such as "Blossom Set", may prevent some blossom drop due to LOW temperatures. However, the resulting fruit are often misshapen. But studies prove that hormone sprays do not prevent blossom drop due to HIGH temperatures." So if blossom drop is the problem you are having, the FAQ on it (linked at the top of the page) offers several more effective prevention techniques. Dave |

Not sure where you got the consensus info from Dave but I've used the Blossom set spray in both aerosol and pump mist and it not only has proven to set fruit in cooler weather in the absence of bees but the resulting fruits have been beautiful on the outside and very desirable eating with fewer inside seeds. I wouldn't be without it. A can/bottle size may vary but one 6 oz. container can treat hundreds of blossom clusters. If I were to guess I'd say you can treat 500 clusters with that amount. The objective when treating is not to wet the flowers but just lightly mist them once. I can usually treat clusters from 200 plants in 15 minutes and repeat for opening blossoms every 4-5 days in the early season. Costs range between $4 and $6 for a 6 oz. container that ensures $400-$600 in early tomato crop. |
absence of bees ??? Since tomatoes are self fertilizing, absence of bees has You're better off shaking the blossoms. |

I wouldn't be without it. ***** I'm glad your experience has been a good one, but for many others it hasn't been a positive experience. The reason being that the plant homones that are in Blossom Set, such as indole acetic acid, induce parthenocarpy, which means the development of fruits in the absence of fertilization by pollen b/c the temps are too low for that to happen normally, and I know you know that that's why there's so few seeds in the fruits. IN addition, because fruit development is abnormal it is possible to get a mushy interior as well as misshapen fruits. Will this happen for everyone? No, but it does happen for some folks. All of these abnormalities can be found by Googling Blossom Set. I know that you're a market gardener and thus feel that the earliest fruits you can market the higher the prices you can demand, but for most of us home growers, I'd rather let nature take it's course without intervention. From what I've read in the past it seems to be used most in areas like the PNW where it stays coolish for long stretches of time in the early Spring. And that's the same reason why Dr. Jim Baggett at Oregon State University developed parthenocarpic varieties such as Oregon Spring for the PNW. Carolyn |
Not sure where you got the consensus info from Dave... From a search here and a quick review of the many past discussions about it. :) I too am glad it seems to work up north for you but my personal experience with it here in the south only confirmed what the FAQ says - fruit that has to be pitched.

There are are a few issues of compatability though. Looks almost perfect in Internet Explorer (except the banner doesn't join to the top border!) The banner works perfectly in Firefox but the mouse scrolling hasn't been disabled on the main window even though the scrollbar is gone. Oh and it won't fit the screen in 800x600 resolution! Any suggestions? Really stuck here....Last edited by zinj; 11-04-2006 at 04:57 PM.

By Boyd KidwellProgressive Farmer Contributor
"A Country Boy Can Survive" is one of Hank Williams Jr.'s best-known songs, and soybean producers may be humming along as they gear up for the 2015 crop. With grain prices down, this is as good a year as any to tighten the belt -- to survive the downturn in the bean market.
It's a tune Travis Starnes, Union County, N.C., may know well. No matter the market prices, he has been producing cost-efficient yields for several years. The 36-year-old farmer from Circle S Ranch took top honors in North Carolina's 2013 Most Efficient Yield (MEY) soybean contest. His cost of production per bushel for double-cropped beans was $3.47. The variety for the winning MEY entry was Asgrow AG5831. To make this MEY entry even more interesting, the 64.5-bushel-per-acre, double-cropped entry followed a wheat yield of 120 bushels per acre.
This result was no accident. Starnes spent $3.88 per bushel on a full-season entry in the 2013 MEY contest. The full-season Asgrow variety AG4632 yielded 79.1 bushels per acre and ranked second in the contest. For good measure, Circle S Ranch had a third MEY entry of $3.91 per bushel with a yield of 77.1 bushels per acre, also with AG4632. That entry ranked fourth best. All three MEY entries came from fields planted in 15-inch rows.
In 2012, Starnes had a sixth-place, full-season entry in the contest. His cost per acre was $3.77 with a yield of 90.2 bushels. In 2011, Circle S Ranch placed second in the MEY contest with a $4.20-per-bushel cost of production. The MEY contest is sponsored by the North Carolina Soybean Producers Association and is administered by Jim Dunphy, of the North Carolina State University Cooperative Extension Service.
Starnes treats all of his soybean acres the same. He figures his production cost across 3,500 acres of beans is approximately $4 per bushel.
Variety selection is a key part of Starnes' MEY game plan. "In the last 10 years, the seed companies have released some great soybean genetics. It used to be unusual for us to cut 60-bushel-per-acre beans in North Carolina. Now, I'm cutting a lot of acres with 100-bushel beans, but I haven't had enough contiguous acres for a 100-bushel-per-acre contest entry," he said.
On the other hand, there isn't a silver bullet soybean variety. Starnes has five different soil types across his land and matches soil types with the top varieties for each field. For full-season beans, he likes to use mid- to late--Group IV varieties.
"One of our key decisions every year is matching the right variety with its best soil type," he said. "You need above-average yields to make inputs cost-efficient."
Starnes has reduced his seeding rates as yields have increased. On full-season beans, he plants 85,000 to 100,000 seeds per acre, while many growers plant 120,000 to 160,000 seeds per acre. Lower plant populations allow soybean plants to grow bushy and produce more pods, Starnes observes. A few years ago, he planted between 150,000 and 180,000 seeds per acre.
"If we have good emergence and a solid stand, we actually make higher yields with lower plant populations, and we save approximately $20 per acre on seed costs," Starnes said.
The family's Circle S Ranch is in an area with glyphosate-resistant pigweeds. Battling these resistant weeds adds $25 per acre to production costs, compared to using Roundup Ready soybeans with only glyphosate as the postemergence herbicide.
Before planting full-season soybeans, Starnes applies 1 quart of Roundup ($4.60 per acre) as a burndown. After planting, Starnes applies 1 quart of Prefix ($8.40 per acre) before the soybeans have two to four leaves and before the Palmer amaranth is 4 inches tall. If he waits any later than the two- to four-leaf stage, Prefix can lightly stunt soybeans. But Starnes adds that his beans usually recover with no yield loss.
Starnes makes an over-the-top application with 1 quart of Roundup ($4.60 per acre) or 3 pints of Extreme (Pursuit and glyphosate, at $8.85 per acre) approximately 21 days after the Prefix application. He uses Extreme on fields with heavy morningglory pressure.
He usually tank-mixes a fungicide (Stratego YLD, 4 ounces, $13 per acre) with his second herbicide application because most of his fields have heavy frogeye leafspot disease pressure. Starnes mixes a 5-0-12-8S foliar fertilizer at a rate of 1 gallon per acre ($8 per acre) with this application. Returns from the foliar fertilizer have been variable at Circle S Ranch. Yield responses range from 0 to 5 bushels per acre. Starnes had 7 acres of yield tests on Circle S Ranch in 2014 to learn more about cost-efficient returns from foliar fertilizer.
North Carolina Extension soybean specialist Jim Dunphy has managed the MEY contest since 1991. He said growers are eager to learn what they can do to reduce their production costs. In all, five entries cracked the $4-per-bushel barrier in the 2013 contest.
"We publish a big spreadsheet table, so a producer can find his entry and match his numbers against other soybean growers. This gives each producer a chance to see which of his numbers are toward the top, and where he or she can improve efficiency," Dunphy said.
The veteran soybean specialist also helps growers identify areas where they can cut costs without hurting efficiency. For example, Dunphy has conducted 100 field trials with North Carolina's two most popular fungicides.
In trials with Headline and Quadris, Dunphy recorded an average yield advantage of 2.2 bushels per acre for both fungicides and found no significant difference between performances of the two. Dunphy estimates a chemical cost of $15 to $20 per acre, plus application costs of $5 to $7 per acre.
Likewise, Dunphy has tested foliar fertilizers for yield efficiency. Some growers have attributed substantial yield advantages to foliar fertilizers, but the soybean specialist's experience shows an average yield advantage of only 1.5 bushels per acre.
North Carolina ranks second in the country for turkey-growing, and Starnes is one of the many soybean growers who use the poultry litter produced on his family's farm. Starnes applies turkey litter before planting the wheat crop that precedes soybeans in his rotation. The Union County farmer takes soil tests and has the litter analyzed for fertilizer values. He then matches litter application rates with expected yield levels.
While the poultry litter is produced on Circle S Ranch, Dunphy uses a fertilizer cost equal to the value of nutrients removed at the yield level in the MEY contest. Dunphy also allots a production cost for land rental to all of the MEY entries based on the productivity of the soils. This way, a farmer who owns his cropland has a similar input cost as farmers who rent that same quality land.
But they probably won't find land with soil as fertile as what Starnes calls "Grandpa's brag patch." Some of Starnes' best MEY contest entries are from the fields surrounding his grandfather's home and the farm's original turkey houses. These fields have been no-tilled for 40 years with regular turkey litter applications.
No-tilling contributes to soybean efficiency at Circle S Ranch. A six-year study of conventional-till versus no-till soybeans at Iowa State University concluded in 2008 that soybean yields were not significantly different between the tillage systems. However, the input costs for no-till soybeans were $18 to $25 less per acre than for conventional tillage.
Starnes' success in raising soybeans for less than $4 per bushel in 2014 was a significant achievement. If prices trend lower next year, that ability will prove even more important for Starnes and his neighbors, country folk determined to survive and thrive.
When it comes to growing cost-efficient soybeans, sometimes less is more. Harold Bunch, of B&B Farms, in Chowan County, N.C., recorded an entry of $3.94 per bushel in the 2013 Most Efficient Yield (MEY) contest with a fairly straightforward soybean-management program.
Bunch's contest entry included a yield of 79.5 bushels per acre for full-season dryland beans. But he kept his expenses in check by using fewer inputs compared to many producers.
Bunch planted his MEY contest entry of Pioneer P46T21R soybeans in 15-inch rows on May 1. Before planting, he chisel-plowed the field and ran a field cultivator. He also applied 1 quart of Prowl ($7 per acre) mixed with 60 gallons per acre of liquid 2-6-12 fertilizer ($66 per acre). These soybeans were planted in a rotation behind corn.
After the Roundup Ready beans reached 12 to 14 inches, Bunch applied glyphosate at a rate of 1 quart per acre ($3.75 per acre). He didn't use additional herbicides for postemergence control of pigweeds because he farms in an area without weeds resistant to glyphosate.
He used no fungicides or insecticides on the MEY entry. Pioneer P46T21R has good tolerance to frogeye leafspot, one of the most important soybean diseases in the Southeast.
"And, we had showers at the right time," Bunch concludes.
Dennis McCoy, DuPont Pioneer agronomist in North Carolina, agrees that keeping a management program simple is a pretty good strategy. Here are McCoy's suggestions for cost-efficient soybeans:
-- Choose varieties well-suited to your area and soils. Talk with your neighbors and other soybean growers in your area to see what varieties are performing well in local fields.
-- Plant on time. In most areas, soybeans planted early in the season will outyield beans planted late.
-- Fertilize based on soil tests. "I'm also learning that high-yield soybeans may benefit from additional nitrogen around flowering," McCoy said.
-- Consider a fungicide application for disease-susceptible varieties in high-yield environments. Frogeye leafspot and cercospora leaf blight are frequently serious problems in high-yield environments and can cause yield losses of 20%. Some varieties are bred with tolerance to these diseases, but plant pathologists recommend strobilurin fungicide applications for susceptible varieties, especially in wet and humid climates.

Teaching Islamic studies – post-9/11
We are living in a world of nearly instantaneous communication. Visual and oral media reports are crossing linguistic and cultural boundaries with a speed and impact that written texts cannot. Our public and political conversations increasingly use a variety of abbreviated and formulaic means of communication that only hint at complex social, economic, and political issues worldwide.
As we veer from one crisis to another with the Muslim world, there are a number of topics one needs familiarity with in order to make sense of events.
To mention just a few, there is the history of the creation of the state of Israel and the ongoing Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Then there is the history of the rest of the modern Middle East. There is the history of the economic, military, and political agreements between the United States and Saudi Arabia. The list goes on.
How many of us are wellread on European history and the current situation of its immigrant communities? How about the timeline and details of European and American military interventions in the Muslim world? How many of us understand global economics? How many non-Muslims are familiar with the basic texts, practices, and interpretations of Islam and the histories of Muslim cultures?
Faced with the daunting challenge of comprehending the many historical and contemporary factors leading up to current events, it is hardly any wonder that we all gravitate toward the simplicity of images, symbols, and slogans that encapsulate what might otherwise seem too exhausting to even contemplate.

Not intuitive
Mark up a Web page with this simplistic tool, although you'll have to go through several steps before you can get started.
We were underwhelmed by this program's ability to mark up a Web page, and found the options too few and the steps too many. eMarker only works on MHT files, so you'll have to save the Web page first. Instead of guiding you through the process, you're left on your own to figure it out.
In fact, eMarker gets off on the wrong foot from the beginning. Each time it launched, we got an error message that we had to open a file or document first. Since there was no prompt to do so, this was a confusing first impression. The interface is simply organized but the overall design looks dated. The command buttons at the top include a mix of basic browser navigation options (move back and forth between pages, refresh, and stop) and formatting options (bold, italic, and underline). If you have a Web page open in Internet Explorer, eMarker will automatically pull up that page, but that's the last action it helps you with. Once your page appears, the formatting buttons are grayed out and can't be accessed. The program's Help file didn't provide answers, but a trip to the publisher's Web site turned up a few, brief user instructions. You first have to go to the program's File menu and save the page in MHT format to your hard drive. Once you have the MHT file open, you can highlight text on the page in a variety of colors, and change the format of text to bold, underlined, or italicized. You can't add notes, and there's no freehand drawing tool, features that would make the tool much more useful. The demo version limits you to altering three characters at a time, something else you'll find out only after you try and highlight more characters.
Although eMarker did allow us to highlight and change text format, it offers too little to justify the price. We suggest you find a more effective and intuitive program to note important elements of a Web page.

Muhammad's polygamous practices and teachings and his teachings on concubinage are the first proved indictment against his claim to be a prophet of the God Most High. They offend against marriage and offend against the natural dignity of women, who have a natural right that their husband remain faithful to them, and that any marital relationship involve an exclusive one-on-one union. They violate the Sixth Commandment which proscribes adultery.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

Published in Middle East
Keywords: Islam, Jihad, Muslim, Muhammad, polygamy, Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq.
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - Adultery, polygamy, concubinage, pedophilia, incest, and rape are all offenses against the dignity of marriage, the natural institution of the family, and the right and orderly use of the sexual faculties. They are regarded as violations of the natural law as it relates to marriage and are comprehended by the strictures of the Sixth Commandment not to commit adultery.
In the areas of marriage, family, and the exercise of sexual faculties, reason's verdict would seem to be overwhelmingly against Muhammad. Muhammad's actions violated the natural law in some fundamental precepts as well as in its more distant determinations. Put all together, the violations of Muhammad of natural law principles of marriage and human sexuality place it beyond reasonable doubt that Muhammad's life was hardly virtuous in this regard. His is not a life that ought to be imitated.
Indeed, we must concur with St. Thomas Aquinas's judgment in his Summa Contra Gentiles: Muhammad did not restrain his sexual urges, but rather he "gave free rein to carnal pleasure," voluptati carnali habenas relaxans. This relaxation of sexual mores is highly unseemly for an alleged man of God, one of allegedly perfect virtue. Worse, as we shall see, he invoked God in an effort to justify it.
In this article, we shall look generally at the area of Muhammad's marriages and his practice of simultaneous polygamy. In subsequent articles we will look at some specific issues arising from his marital and sexual life.
We may start by observing that in his life Muhammad showed a marked change between his life in the town of Mecca when he had no political power, and his life in the town of Medina once he left Mecca in the Hegira and gained political power. Just like there was an Alexander drunk and an Alexander sober, so there is one Muhammad ante Hegiram and another Muhammad post Hegiram.
In Mecca, Muhammad lived a sexually unobtrusive, monogamous married life with his first wife Khadija bint Khuwaylid until her death shortly before Muhammad's migration or Hegira from the town of Mecca to the town of Medina (originally known as Yathrib). There is no reason to distrust Sahih Muslim (31:5975) which states Muhammad married no other woman until his first wife died. There is no evidence of any sexual improprieties in Muhammad's behavior while married to Khadija, and his marital and sexual behavior would seem to have been commendable, indeed unimpeachable, up until after Khadija's death.
The same cannot be said regarding Muhammad's ten-year Medinan phase. Without doubt, Muhammad, once released from his marital relationship with Khadija and once having his hands on political power, wealth, and the spoils of war, not only taught but practiced a rather extreme form of polygamy and sexual libertineness. He thus made polygamy and concubinage forever part of the alleged revelations of Allah. In Surah 4:3 (a Medinan Surah), Muhammad limited simultaneous polygamy for his followers to four women (and unlimited concubines).
Two things regarding Muhammad's teaching on polygamy should be noted. First, the polygamy taught by Muhammad was strictly polygynous, since only men could have multiple women spouses simultaneously. Women could not have multiple spouses simultaneously. The second thing that ought to be noted is that the four-woman limitation applied to Muslims generally; it did not apply to Muhammad, who excluded himself from Surah 4:3 by another convenient Qur'anic revelation, which addressed his own circumstances.
In other words, there was one marriage and sexual law for all Muslims, and another one for Muhammad alone.
Muhammad expressly excluded himself from the four-wife-only Qur'anic revelation. He operated under a unique dispensation (found in Qur'an 33:50):
"O Prophet!" God the creator of women supposedly says. "Verily, We have made lawful to you your wives, to whom you have paid their Mahr [bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage], and those (captives or slaves) whom your right hand possesses - whom Allāh has given to you, and the daughters of your 'Amm [paternal uncles] and the daughters of your 'Ammah [paternal aunts] and the daughters of your Khāl [maternal uncles] and the daughters of your Khālah [maternal aunts] who migrated [from Mecca] with you, and a believing woman if she offers herself to the Prophet, and the Prophet wishes to marry her; a privilege for you only, not for the (rest of) the believers. Indeed We know what We have enjoined upon them about their wives and those (captives or slaves) whom their right hands possess,--in order that there should be no difficulty on you. And Allāh is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
It seems both unseemly and unfitting that Muhammad should exclude himself from the already loose strictures that bound the rest of his Muslim followers and which limited their polygynous practices to four wives (with easy divorce) and as many captives and concubines as their hearts or their lusts craved.
So unseemly and unfitting is this carved exception that one can literally still sense the dripping sarcasm behind Muhammad's young (and favorite) wife 'A'isha's comment related in Sahih Muslim 8:3453 to the Qur΄anic revelation in 33:51 which essentially allowed Muhammad free reign to any believer who offered herself to him: "I felt jealous of the women who offered themselves to Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and said: Then when Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this: "You may defer any one of them you wish, and take to yourself any you wish; and if you desire any you have set aside (no sin is chargeable to you)" (33:51), I (Aisha) said: It seems to me that your Lord hastens to satisfy your desire."
Yes, 'Aisha, it seems to me also that this "god" of Muhammad hastened a bit too eagerly to satisfy Muhammad's desires. God, it seems, was blasphemously recruited to witness against his own natural law to justify Muhammad's lust and inability to live chastely in accord with that natural moral law. And this is most unseemly for a supposed man of God who is the perfect human.
Now Qur'an 33:50 includes a number of categories of women to which Muhammad had sexual access without supposedly committing adultery: (1) "wives," strictly so called, (2) "those whom your right hand possesses," (3) the "daughters of your 'Amm [paternal uncles]," (4) "the daughters of your Khal [maternal uncles]," (5) the daughters of your Khalah [maternal aunts] who migrated [from Mecca] with you," and (6) "a believing woman if she offers herself" to Muhammad.
So Muhammad's particular marital and sexual law gave him a wide universe of sexual allowables. The sexual allowables included more than just his many legal wives, and also included both captive slavewomen ("those whom your right hand possesses" is a euphemism for slavewomen), his first cousins, and finally the broad category of a "believing woman if she offers herself" to him. This teaching makes a mockery of any natural law of marriage, a mockery of any prohibition regarding adultery, and a mockery of prohibitions against incest.
The Islamic scholar Montgomery Watt has taken all the categories identified in Qur'an 33:50 and sifted through the historical evidence. With respect to the category of wives and concubines, Watt identified fourteen as certain, nine of whom survived Muhammad. There may be more than fourteen in this category, perhaps as many as "a score of other women" as Watt noted. But he also observed: "There is much obscurity and dubiety about some of them; many tribes were doubtless eager to claim a matrimonial relationship with Muhammad, and to make the most of vague reminiscences. . . . The one thing that seems certain about this supplementary list is that none of the women in it formed a lasting union with Muhammad." In other words, they were not wives and concubines, but involved some of these other categories of sexual allowables.
Watt identifies sixteen others as part of this "score of other women" in addition to the fourteen legal wives and concubines. Watt also identifies seven more women "between whom and Muhammad there was some talk of marriage without the plans ever being carried out."
So Muhammad certainly had sex with fourteen women, but may possibly have had sexual congress with at least twenty women. And this sexual activity occurred in that ten-year period between 622 (when Muhammad left Mecca) and 632 (when Muhammad died).
It is apparent that Muhammad taught that polygamy (and concubinage) was in accordance with God's will. He practiced polygamy (and concubinage) himself. He allowed polygamy (and concubinage) to his followers. It is, in the traditional Muslim's view, part of the law of God, the Shari'a, that a man may marry up to four women (and have unlimited concubines, which is what explains the famous Turkish seraglios).
Both Muhammad's practice and teaching regarding polygamy and concubinage are offenses against the natural moral law, are inimical to a healthy marriage life, are demeaning toward women, and contradict one of the forceful aspects of the marital relationship apparent in its true nature: fidelity and unity.
(Muhammad's teachings regarding marriage, of course, also contradict the sublime teaching of Jesus on marriage, but that is to go beyond the natural moral law. Because of Muhammad's teachings, Muslims will have great difficulty understanding the relationship of Christ and his Church as a relationship between a man and his one wife.)
Muhammad's polygamous practices and teachings and his teachings on concubinage are the first proved indictment against his claim to be a prophet of the God Most High. They offend against the natural law of marriage and offend against the natural dignity of women, who have a natural right that their husband remain faithful to them, and that any marital relationship involve an exclusive one-on-one union.

Here's a sidebar filed Saturday by Adam Jude:
Surrounded by a pack of reporters, Oregon's newest star, LaMichael James, slumped in a chair and tried to explain his unexpected outburst Saturday afternoon at Autzen Stadium.
Except for a sore neck, the redshirt freshman running back had little to complain about following his 27-carry, 152-yard breakout performance in the Ducks' 31-24 victory over Utah.
"I just wanted to play hard for my teammates," James said. "They have a lot of confidence in me, and I didn't want to let them down."
A few feet away, another Oregon star tried his best to explain the continued decline in the Ducks' passing game. After completing just 4-of-16 passes and losing two fumbles, junior quarterback Jeremiah Masoli wasn't quite sure where to begin.
"I can't pinpoint it," Masoli said. "I'll look at the film and let you guys know."
Masoli attempted just three passes in the second half; two fell incomplete and the other was intercepted in the end zone.
Oregon's 95 passing yards were the fewest since Masoli threw for 84 yards in a loss at California last season. Like Saturday's win over the Utes, that game was also played in a heavy rain, though the Ducks weren't using that as an excuse.
"I don't know if we were just trying to make too much happen … I don't know," UO offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich said. "We had a couple of things that were Day 1-type of mistakes. … It certainly could've been a much more comfortable win." Click here for the complete story.

Hello I am from South America, Colombia and I currently acquired two African Geese one male and the other female. Everything was going fine they were growing fast and normally until the little male develope a lump on the left side of his just behind his beak. This lump is squishy , and from the day I noticed it it has gotten bigger, I don't know what it is I thinking about giving him some strong antibiotics, but I would hate to lose him for they are so cute and special animals. Thanks I appreciate any help I can get on the subject. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It sounds like an abscess, maybe? If so, try garlic instead of antibiotics. I recently had an old tooth abscess flare up. I cut 1 large clove, minced it and ate it. I did this 12 hours later, and after 2 days, the pain was gone. Garlic is an incredible antibiotic, my husband got cellulitis in his face and had to take an expensive antibiotic. Later, he got it again, and instead I made him garlic (make sure it is raw or barely cooked and cut really fine). It cured him after 3 days! Best to give it every 12 hours. Hope this helps!! |
ugggh!! how did it taste and how long did that take to get off your breath and out of your sweat glands? |

Most people can eat onion in food without any difficulties. Higher intakes of onion may worsen existing heartburn, though it does not seem to cause heartburn in people who do not already have it.46 There are also isolated reports of allergy to onion, including among people with asthma,47manifesting as skin rash and red, itchy eyes.
Onion is safe for use in children and, in small amounts in food, during pregnancy (though some pregnant women may have heartburn that onions could exacerbate) and nursing. It is unknown whether larger amounts of onion are safe during pregnancy and nursing. One study did find that baby rats nursing from mothers that were fed onion developed a taste for onion and suffered no ill effects.48

As a delivery captain for many years, I have sailed all types of boats (of course they were large, fairly new ones) across the Atlantic several times, and Miami to most islands south. I survived a force 5 gale in a Spirit 23 that took out 2 larger boats and killed 5 people on them. So I know boats and know what I am doing. That said, I will say one more thing. I WOULD NEVER TAKE MY SWING KEEL C-26 OUT OF SIGHT OF LAND. If it came off the top of a 40 footer, the keel would come right through the cabin upon reentry. The cabin sole has already been reinforced where it cracked around the trunk and a couple months ago it sprung another leak, I mean like a garden hose, at the base of the trunk. Fortunately, I keep a can of Gorilla Snot on board and was able to patch it within 5 minutes. The hull is only about 1/8" at the sole.
Scary, isn't it?
Ive seen the Frenchies videos, but that to me isn't much more than a lake sail on a 20 knot day. Those are not breaking waves. Watch 'Perfect Storm' and imagine being in that crap with a swing keel. Adios.
